That post was extreamly unclear, but I think maybe you were after something like this:

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function cuname(userName){
var check = 0;
if (userName != "username1"){
check = 1;
}
if (check == 0) {
alert(userName + " is not taken, is ok to use as username");
}
else {
alert(userName + " is taken, try a diffrent Username");
}
}
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form onsubmit="cuname(this.text1.value)" name="form1">
<input Name="text1" value="">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="try">
</form>
</body>
</html>


Have you by chance worked with VB/VBScript before? I got rid of the MsgBox function you were using because it was pretty much pointless. I also changed the cuname() function so that it accepts a parameter userName which is passed in onSubmit. If that wasn't what you were looking for then you should probably post something a more specific...

I played aroud with the script and it works!

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function cuname(userName){
var check = 0;
if (userName != "username1"){
check = 1;
}
if (check == 0) {
alert(userName + " is taken, try a diffrent Username");
}
else {
alert(userName + " is not taken, is ok to use as username");
}
}
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form onsubmit="cuname(this.text1.value)" name="form1">
<input Name="text1" value="">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="try">
</form>
</body>
</html>

I was wondering why you only wanted to have one username that was taken... Anyway, I edited the code:

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var names = new Array("Joe","Bob","[H]Chris Lewis[H]","spoofy923")
function cuname(userName){
&nbsp;&nbsp;var isOkay=1;
&nbsp;&nbsp;for (i=0;i<=names.length;i++) {
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;if (userName == names[i]) { isOkay=0; }
&nbsp;&nbsp;}
&nbsp;&nbsp;if (isOkay) {
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;alert(userName + " is not taken, is ok to use as username");
&nbsp;&nbsp;}
&nbsp;&nbsp;else {
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;alert(userName + " is taken, try a diffrent Username");
&nbsp;&nbsp;}
}
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form onsubmit="cuname(this.text1.value);return false;" name="form1">
<input Name="text1" value="">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="try">
</form>
</body>
</html>

As you probably guessed, the User Names go inside the Array() separated by commas. Hope that helps!
